Broken Promises Poem by Malikah Awan

Broken Promises

Rating: 4.5


10 years on,
And I'm still thinking of how you broke my heart
even though you promised
we would never part.
10 years on,
And I'm thinking of our last fight
worst of a long list
even though you promised
you'd never raise your fist.
10 years on,
And I'm thinking of all the I love you's;
How you promised we were forever
but you found another muse.
10 years on
And I'm thinking of every broken promise
you thought you could fix with a kiss.
10 years on,
And I realise the promises weren't the only thing you broke
as you treated my life as a joke.
10 years on...
Broken promises...
Broken me.

A heart-rending piece of poetry well articulated and nicely penned from the heart. Very passionate with strong emotions. Thanks for sharing, Malikah.
